    In the last five sermons, we have been preaching about marriage, and today we want to focus on a very important subject that God is very concerned about.

    We want to preach about children in our marriage. Children can be a blessing, or they can cause much pain. Usually the outcome is directly affected by how much the parents obey God's Word in raising them. Illus: One lady that had three teenagers was asked, "If you had it to do all over ...read more

    I want to preach to you about “Spiritual Alzheimer’s”. We hear a great deal today about this dreadful disease called Alzheimer’s Disease.

There are some “good” things that come from Alzheimer’s, such as: • You never have to watch reruns on television • You are always meeting new people • You can hide your own Easter eggs Illus: Three sisters ages 92, 94 and 96 ...read more

    This will be the sixth sermon on this series on eschatology. Three of the six sermons preached thus far have dealt with that time described as The Tribulation period, which will last for seven years

    This is an age that no one desires to live in.

    It is our obligation to see that we not only preach with divine urgency but pray with divine fervency. We must be satisfied with nothing less than the outpouring of the Spirit of God.

    The power to change must possess the power to remove the old and bring in the new. This becomes even more difficult when it comes to personal change. The old has become engrained in us. Our past cannot be undone. We have essentially become a product of ev

    The Corinthian believers had powerful and impressive spiritual gifts, but Paul is essentially telling them those gifts don’t really impress God as much as three others that they seemed to have forgotten. What were those 3 gifts, and why were they better?

    Kids learn quickly. But they see life and love from their own point of view. Asked what the thought about “falling in love” several children gave these answers: · Tom, age 5 - Once I’m in kindergarten, I’m going to find me a wife. · Glenn, 7 - If falling love is anything like learning how to ...read more

    One of the important areas that Jesus spoke a lot about was the enslavement to money and material possessions. Money is essential for our basic needs and daily living, but we should be wary to not let money become our master. Here is a study on being under different masters!

    More than one master? We read like this in Matthew 6:24, “No man is able to be a servant to two masters: for he will have hate for the one and love for the other, or he will keep to one and have no respect for the other. You may not be servants of God and of wealth.” (BBE) In the above mentioned ...read more

    The will of the Father wasn’t an optional thing for Jesus; it was an essential thing. It wasn’t a cul-de-sac, but it was His main thoroughfare. Just as you were to finish a big porterhouse steak, Jesus is satisfied by doing the Father’s will. It was His source of life.

    Have you discovered your purpose? Do you know your “why”? Many American Christians fall into the trap that exists only to make money or to be happy.
